Now that’s a game I haven’t thought about in a while. I backed the game in 2013 and played it for 100+ hours in beta, but dropped it shortly after 1.0 because I didn’t like many of the fundamental changes they introduced. Last played September 2016 apparently. How is the game these days? Maybe I’ll join and give it another try.
I just wrote some detail on this into another reply here, but suffice it to say that the game with mods these days is nothing like the original game.
Out of the hundreds of games I’ve played, I’ve never seen a community put so much effort into modding a game. It’s turned a game that held my groups attention for 2-3 weeks into a half a year endeavor.
Just finished it together with a friend for the first time and what a game. I’ve been reading the first few books and the immense scale already felt insane. The game just emphasized that
Me and my friends have been talking about going back in again for LASO. We’re not sure though because there’s a huge skill gap between half our usual 4 and we don’t want them to feel like they arent being helpful
Wouldn’t think too much about it! Depending on the game I’m either getting carried (league) or carrying (Apex) my friends. It’s about having a fun time together above all
One thing I recommend for horror games is to play with a friend (i.e. in the same room). You can even figure out a way to do old-school controller-swapping (for a VN, maybe each chapter, or after a fixed time interval e.g. every 10 minutes). My partner is a huge horror buff, but also has a hard time with the longer periods of stress that horror games impart vs movies, so we play games this way.
I’m so glad my mobo died last year so I got new one with new DDR5 ram before this happened. It’s like a good example for bad things not always being so bad after all.
It used to be cheaper, yes. They increased the price for the release. Maybe you bought it on a key site at a discount. But you certainly didn’t buy on steam, gog or their site on discount. They have state the will never do discounts.
Uh… unless I’m reading this wrong, they are correct that it has never gone on sale before. Games like this do exist. It’s rare, but it happens. Like they said, maybe you bought on a key site or maybe a different platform or currency? But on steam in usd, yeah, doesn’t go on sale.
Shockingly good price, but that doesn’t tend to be the norm. Its more an outlier with retail price of games these days with even games with f2p monetization charging way higher.
You say reminder like you just made a factual comment. Its literally a completely subjective value appraisal by you.
There are plenty of reasons to buy at full price:
You want to support the dev (many of these reasons can be suspect to me but its still a valid reason for a perspective buyer)
You want to play the game right now, as opposed to waiting to where you wont want to play the game
Many multiplayer games are most fun initially before the awful meta and hyper online people screw the fun out of it/force it all to be competitive af/necessitate you needing to look up guides
Speaking of multiplayer, you might want to play with friends/be social
It’s just not that much money to you
Personally, I’ve stopped trying to do any sort of trick to save money on games because I realized I actually probably ended up spending more on games that were on sale that Id just never actually bother playing than when I just bought a game the second I felt like playing it and then played it. It ended up being a bit of a fallacy for me, and I imagine its the same for many other people.
If you’re triggered easily, I’m not sure if the game is a good fit for you as it does delve into some deeper, more serious topics.
The only other thing I could think of to try and resolve this issue would be to purposely spoil the plot of the game for yourself by reading summaries in advance and then make the judgement call on whether or not you believe you can handle the subject matter?
Developers should spend effort vouching for a launch without startup logos. Even if supporting libraries/publishers are credited some other way, startup movies take up a lot of time when gamers launch the game many times.
Trails in the Sky has a feature where you can choose to launch the game directly into your most recent save game rather than ending up at the menus. This would be a boon for many singleplayer games, especially those with densely animated menus.
My first-ever USB pendrive was 256 megabytes, in 2003.
It was a godsend, because to that point I’d been using floppy disks. It was brushed metal and came in a little faux-leather carry pouch. I guess they figured it was so damn expensive, they should at least make it feel premium.
I’ve still got it, and it still works. Quite useful actually for random jobs like flashing the BIOS on old machines that refuse to read from anything too large, or too new.
